I completely agree. I'm also waiting for an advanced Python/project management book that helps folks out with large-scale projects.
And, for the 2nd edition, may I suggest: - coverage of OptionParser module, which is more advanced than the getopt module that you discuss on page 141. - better Mac OS X application building coverage. Tell us how to build double-clickable applications. I wish I could ask for wxPython coverage (the whole chapter on tkinter is useless to me), but I won't start a flame war here. :: steve :: Mariano Draghi wrote: > Alex Martelli escribió: > > > > Yes, good point...
